Submissions for 2026 open from February 1 to March 1
The 2026 Markham Jazz Festival happens August 21–23 in Unionville, Ontario. The application window to perform there is open from February 1 to March 1. Please apply through this website only, instead of through the MJF general inbox or the AD’s email. Thank you!

Artistic Director – TD Markham Jazz Festival
Please note that we are a volunteer-run jazz festival and we cannot respond to artists/agents checking in on the status of their submission. Artists from outside Ontario wishing to perform should be aware that we generally do not pay travel expenses and we’d likely need you to have some kind of tour support before we could consider you.
